I became a girl group idol for my sister.

Was she curious about what dating between ordinary people is like?

Nanami Hatsune thought for a moment and said, "We usually go to a sauna for dates, I think we go about once a week."

This surprised Nanami Oda, who looked incredulous: "Just going to the sauna?"

“Well, because he doesn’t have much time usually, and he really likes going to the sauna; it helps him relieve his fatigue.” Nanami Hase said, a slight smile appearing on her face, though it looked somewhat forced. “I’ve been doing this for years, and I’m used to it.”

This made Nanami Oda feel even more bewildered: "They're taking this way way too lightly! No, you could say they're being far too relaxed!"

"Too relaxed?"

“Yeah, too relaxed!” Nanami Oda emphasized again, waving my raised fist: “If I’m not mistaken, he’s been picking up his senior more often lately, right? Just in this short period of time.”

"Ah, yes, I've suddenly become very diligent lately." Nanami Hase nodded: "Although I don't quite know why, I suddenly started showing concern for your well-being."

"I was careless, and I acted impulsively after all?" Upon hearing this, Nanami Oda frowned slightly: "Wasn't I just helping them get started?!"

"What did you say?"

"nothing!"

The form in front of them was what they needed to fill out; it was called a self-evaluation form. It had been handed out yesterday. Perhaps to change the subject, Oda Nanami waved the form in her hand.

"I think I have some really great skills too!" Nanami Oda said happily. "I thought about it for a long time last night before I came up with it!"

Nanami Hatsune looked at the other person with some doubt, but at the same time became more and more curious.

"What is it?"

"That's my greatest strength!" Nanami Oda said with great pride and seriousness, "That's my feeling for you, Nanami-san!"

Nanami Hanase was stunned. She never expected to hear such words again in this place. The undisguised emotions came rushing at her, and she didn't know how to dodge them.

She suddenly realized that some of her thoughts might be wrong, and that taking over the matter from last time might be a mistake.

And most importantly, the impulse and excitement she felt just now, or rather, the feeling that her heart had been stirred by those words, made her feel somewhat uneasy.

This made her even more conflicted.

……

Nanami Oda was getting water from the water heater when she heard footsteps. She turned around and saw Nanami Hase walking towards her with a water cup.

When Nanami Haze saw Nanami Oda, she stopped and turned to leave, but she heard Oda's voice behind her.

"Nanami-san!"

Nanami Hanase stopped and turned to look at the other person: "Is there something you need?"

"Are you avoiding me?" Nanami Oda asked nervously.

"Ah, no, no!" Nanami Hatsune quickly denied, but her nervousness and deliberate act of creating distance between them revealed her attitude.

“I’ve been reflecting on what happened last time…” Nanami Oda said softly. She suddenly raised her head, a gentle smile on her face: “I’ve decided to give up.”

"Give up?" Nanami Hatsune's words left her somewhat confused.

Nanami Oda continued, "It means I'm giving up on Nanami-san. My actions have caused Nanami-san a lot of trouble, so please feel free to continue working happily here. I'll just be an ordinary junior to you!"

She smiled, then gave a slight bow to Nanami Hase, and walked towards her workstation with her cup in hand.

That figure looked quite carefree, but it left Nanami Hase at a loss for words.

"Will you make me happy...?"

Nanami Hatsune muttered to herself, but her mind became even more chaotic.

She returned to her workstation, took out her phone, and wanted to shift her focus to work and chat with someone about work-related matters.

At that moment, she saw a message from her boyfriend on her LinkedIn profile.

【Even though we just met, I already miss you, Shishi-chan!】

"Huh?" Nanami Hanase was stunned. She looked at the message her boyfriend had sent, which was clearly not meant for her.

Then, the message was immediately withdrawn, which made Nanami Hase even more agitated.

"So, I've already seen it all..."

Several minutes passed without any explanation, only the cold, dismissed message notification remained.

Link would always show a read notification whenever she opened and read a message, meaning the other party definitely knew she had seen it, yet they still acted this way. This made Nanami Hase, who thought she had long since gotten used to it, even more frustrated.

Time passed slowly, and as the usual time to leave work approached, fewer and fewer people remained in the office, and those rushing to finish their work were also few and far between.

At this moment, Nanami Hatsune focused all her attention on her work, as only work could give her temporary peace of mind.

At this moment, Nanami Oda stood up, put on her coat, grabbed her briefcase, and called out to the people around her, "I'm leaving now!"

Hanase Nanami habitually looked up at the other person: "Thank you for your hard work..."

Before he could finish speaking, the other person had already left, his figure several meters away, walking very quickly and with an easy gait.

"You..."

The final description of the subject became very low. Nanami Haze gently rubbed her head, feeling extremely tired today.

Could it be that I really care about the other person?

"Haase-san."

The voice of her colleague came from behind her, but this caused Nanami Hase to have a stress reaction.

"not like this!"

"It's surprising that Hase-san has wavered." The newcomer was a woman who looked slightly older than Hase Nanami. She smiled and glanced at the figure that had already gone downstairs, her expression full of gossip: "Could it be related to that promising junior you've been looking forward to?"

"She's just my junior..." Nanami Haze smiled, but the smile looked somewhat stiff, and her expression seemed to be hiding something. "She keeps making mistakes, which makes me uneasy..."

The colleague nodded: "That's all?"

Judging from her tone, she clearly didn't believe it.

"Suddenly telling me to relax and deliberately keeping my distance has made me even more worried..." As if she was eager to defend herself, Nanami Hase immediately began to speak, sounding somewhat incoherent: "It's so infuriating! This is making me even more concerned!"

But as soon as she finished speaking, Nanami Hatsune froze.

"care……"

She muttered to herself for a moment, then shook her head with a smile: "No, how could that be..."

She seemed to be trying to calm herself down, but she couldn't. A smile reappeared on her face, but it was just to hide her nervousness.

"No, it can't be..."

"Here you go, this is the manuscript I've reviewed." The colleague handed the file to Nanami Hase, a look of anticipation on her face: "I'm really looking forward to the 'How could this be? No way!' part."

After saying that, he smiled and turned to leave, not waiting for Nanami Hase to explode.

The next day, morning.

As usual, Nanami Oda came to the company and handled her own work without taking the initiative to talk to Nanami Hase.

During the break, Nanami Hase was talking with the company's top designer, who was also a woman and very capable. The two had a very good relationship.

"By the way, how did the date go the other day?" Nanami Hatsune asked.

"It doesn't feel right, our personalities don't quite match, I don't know..." the designer said with a sigh.

“That’s true. It would be exhausting to be together if our personalities don’t match,” Nanami Hatsune nodded.

The designer nodded, and at that moment she saw Nanami Oda working not far away. Her face immediately lit up with a gossipy look: "Don't talk about me, how about you? How's it going?"

"Me?" Nanami Hate was taken aback, not expecting the topic to turn to her.

The designer nodded and pouted in front of her. Nanami Hase turned her head and saw Nanami Oda working there.

"No way, no way, this can't be happening!" Nanami Hate quickly denied, "What are you thinking? You're all girls!"

"Really? That's nothing, isn't it? Everyone always talks about you two and thinks you're a couple." The designer said, then asked, "How impossible is it?"

Nanami Hasegawa hesitated for a moment: "It's highly unlikely."

"So, it's still possible, huh?" the designer laughed.

"Huh?!" Nanami Hanase was stunned. She didn't even know why the other person would come to such a conclusion.

That evening, Nanami Hatsune would occasionally glance at Nanami Oda at her desk, watching as Oda began packing her things to go home. Her mind was filled with the events of the past few days.

She hesitated, unsure whether she should do it.

Finally, the moment she saw the other person walk out, Nanami Hase stood up and chased after her.

"Oda!"

"Is there something you need?" Oda Nanami turned around and looked at the other person, somewhat puzzled but still maintaining a certain level of restraint.

"Um, what..." Nanami Hanase began, but then hesitated, unsure of what to say. Words failed her, and she grew increasingly anxious. Finally, she managed to ask, "Have you eaten?"

"Eating? Not yet, is Hase-senpai going to eat?" Oda Nanami asked.

At this moment, Nanami Oda didn't seem as lively as usual to Nanami Hase. She was very restrained and reserved, as if she was afraid of causing trouble.

Is it because you're afraid that if you're too proactive, I'll dislike you?

This thought popped into Nanami Hase's mind.

"Want to go out for dinner together?" Hanase Nanami continued, picking up where they left off.
